We had seen a beautiful Sun Conure at a Petco and we got on a list to be interviewed. We never even got a chance, someone higher up on the list got him/her. So I checked Petfinder.org and in the classified section there was an ad for what seemed to be exactly what I was looking for. She is that, and a whole lot more!.

More Chances To Win! Bird of the week is now becoming Bird of the Day! Beginning Monday, February 1, 2010, we will switch from Bird of the Week to Bird of the Day. The winner will get 1,000 Bird eClub points and his or her bird’s photo will be in the spotlight all day.

HiCoCo here, Well I got my new digs today, Mom came home from the bird fair loaded down with my new cage, toys and PineNuts. My new cage is so much bigger. Mom put all my stuff in, and I get to sleep in it tonight. I also got a new round swing with a bell hanging on it. She knows I love bells. It was like Christmas was here again. And best of all we got a new sister. We're hoping she and Smokey will hit it off, if they do she'll be Smokey's new cage mate. We haven't met her yet, Mom say's soon, after she goes to the vet to get all checked out. I could hear her and Smokey whistling to each other. If he can get a girlfriend why can't I get a boyfriend? Mom says Smokey is really lonely since Boo (who was his cagemate) went to the Rainbow Bridge. I guess I can accept that, but it still ain't fair. Thanks for the visit, I'm leaving u with a vote Coco

Hey PollyLady Bird here. How has you day gone? Mine was okay. Mommy had to go get me a warm mist humidifier because she had to finally crank up the heat today - it was cold! Tomorrow we are only suppose to get to the mid 40's as a high. Tomorrow night it will be in the 20's. Brrr. Well, just flying by to say hi and thank you for my vote. Here's a vote for you sent with cocka"TOO" love, ~~ Lady Bird

greetings from shannigansThank you, you and all your family are beautiful. I think Grandma needs to close the window tonight, it is by Peach and Pumpkins cage but it makes the whole room chilly, Peach and Pumpkin are of course pied.

greetings from shannigansI am so very sorry, that was wrong of them. I hope you do not despair and hope you find somebirdy else, hopefully a too who needs you to be its Mom. I feel really bad about this. Guess the answer is just keep loving your little ones and keep looking, there are so many birds and critters that need a kind and loving, dedicated Mommy.

greetings from shannigansIf it has any bad habbits you can probably work them out unless it is like this tiel we have Birdzilla, but he sings, whistles and talks a little and was mean when we were given him but we love him and he has a home here forever.

greetings from shannigansToos or cockies as they are called in Australia are very sweet and affectionate or can be. Sometimes noisy but so much fun. Shannigans used to drop her toys and say I dropped my toys, then with an Italian accent I guess, sometimes it is I droppeda my toy. She now says I love you once in awhile. I could have adopted a grey, the place I bought her Sailfin said it is adopting not buying well whatever it is called I love her and I will someday get her a mate but I think she is very sweet and I hope you give the cockatoo a home. They can be so much fun, and they may not be as smart as greys but they are special. Everyone and everybirdy has different talents and personalities. I am very happy with Shannigans. She loves bananas, little rawhide bones, she loves to tear up papers, boxes, etc from the recycling bag, sometimes the bag itself gets chewed on, it is fun for her. Now she is into dunking everything in her water bowl, toys, her foot, paper. Let us know when you get to bring the too home. xoxoxoxo

Hi from Buddy and Little Bird!You sure are pretty!!!You sunnies are gorgeous...I would just worry about the noise!!Lil' Bird wakwes us in the morning with his squawks, and he's supposed to be a quiet Conure!! Buddy is so quiet except to talk, but of course he's learning Lil Birds squwks to imitate, as well as the dogs barking!!Here's a vote for you!

Greetings from ShannigansThank you, Grandma found the sack with the one time camera in it and so she can take a photo of me, Mom, and my ribbon. I dont think I would win in a bird show but at 4H I did and it was fun. Lots of cats there, then guinea pigs, a bearded dragon and all sorts of things I did not look at, I was sort of nervous about all the people and being there. I just remembered nobody gave me my spinach leaves last night, not fair. I have tried matzo crackers, or whatever they are called, they are good and I cannot remember the birdie that told me about them, they lived in New York and I miss my friend. I know we cannot find a conure around here, nobody here drives and Aunt Bobbi works on the weekends so she cannot drive us to any bird show. Have to keep looking. I hope you have a fun-tastic day, try to stay cool.

Greetings from ShannigansThat is quite the family, Mom and Grandma love animals and Grandma only has one pet, a male cat named Moria, after the mines of moria from lord of the rings, they trapped him as a kitten and he cried and cried and Grandma opened the cage he was in to check on him, he bit her real hard and ran and hid under her bed or under whatever, then one day he walked into the kitchen and threw himself at her feet, she pet him a little and a couple times later he did this Grandma decided to try to pick him up and he has been her cat every since and if he hears anyone on the porch he runs so only Grandma, Mom, and Aunt Bobbi have ever seen him, we dont have any company hardly ever anyway. Rosey is a fat beagle/bassett who taught Sam and Sadie to howl and carry on when they hear an emergency siren. We have a dwarf hamster, rat, gecko, chinchilla, 5 doves, 6 parakeets, 6 love birds, 1 quakers, 2 male tiels, one is mean. Of course Me. Then guniea pigs, rabbits, cats and who knows what is next. I go to the judging tommorrow and guess Shamrock may get to go to. I am happy to go show off,hehe. I hope you are having a funtastic day with your fantastic Mom.

Greetings from shannigansI can hardly wait till Thursday, I get to go to the Mall and show people how great we birds are and how smart and pretty. I hope they keep those cats away from me, ours are scared of me, I squawk they run. I shall visit you tommorrow. Good night.

Polly your cuteThanks for the congrats and the visit. I have 2 Sun Conure sisters. Both are ok I guess. They have not tried to beat me up. It's my sister Lillian who is the brat. Mom is home from work a bit early tonight. She has to keep an eye on Burgin. Somehow Lillian opened his cage a beat him pretty bad. He has like 4 wounds on him. He seems to be holding his own in the brooder and his boo boo's have stopped bleeding. Mom is just worried because he is so old. and blind. She needs to try to get him to drink so she has been trying every half hour or so to get him to drink some water. She has him under the heat lamp too. In the morning she said she will get him to try and take some birdie formula. Please say a little prayer for him to recover fast. Hugs, Gimpy

Greetings from shannigansI am glad I dont eat crickets and worms, gross. I think it will be fun Thursday going to the 4H Expo and being judged and trying to win a rosette. The gecko, chinchilla and a fat cat named Mia all go. I guess Grandma is going to call and see if birds is one category or if birds and exotic birds are 2 entries. I think Shamrock would like to go with us. I hope you have a funtastic day.
